Scott Meyer appeals from an order modifying legal custody, visitation, and support provisions of a decree concerning his child.
This is our second encounter with these parties. In Meyer's challenge to an earlier court ruling refusing to find Pederson in contempt, we noted "the absurdity of the positions taken by the parties here and with each other evidences the contentiousness of their relationship." Pederson v. Meyer, No. 10-1966, 2011 WL 2556792, at *3 (Iowa Ct. App. 2011). That relationship grew no less contentious. Numerous charges and counter charges of contempt have been filed. Meyer's litigious nature and inability to effectively communicate are apparent from the record. Upon our de novo review of the record, we affirm the district court's rulings (as modified on October 4, 2012), adopting them as our own. See Iowa R. App. P. 6.1203(a), (d).
AFFIRMED.
